Residues Asp 101 and Arg 114 are required for efficient catalysis, although they are located at some distance from the active site Glu 35 and Asp 52. Substituting Ala for either Asp 101 or Arg 114 does not significantly alter the enzyme's tertiary structure, but significantly reduces its catalytic activity. Explain.Trypsin, a peptidase that hydrolyzes polypeptides, functions in the small intestine at an optimum pH of 7.7–8.0. How is the rate of a trypsin-catalyzed reaction affected by each of the following conditions?
- 7.8 The turnover number is defined as the maximum number of substrate molecules that can be converted into product molecules per unit time by an enzyme molecule. The concentration of enzyme active sites is not necessarily equal to the concentration of enzyme molecules, because some enzyme molecules have more than one active site. If the enzyme molecule has one active site, the turnover number is given by turnover number=?max[E]t=?2(?max is often written as ?max)turnover number=Rmax[E]t=k2(Rmax is often written as Vmax) If the enzyme molecule has more than one active site, then [E]t[E]t is multiplied by the number of active sites to determine its effective concentration. Determine the value of the turnover number of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, given that ?maxRmax for carbonic anhydrase equals 249 μmol⋅L−1⋅s−1249 μmol⋅L−1⋅s−1 and [E]t=2.16 nmol⋅L−1[E]t=2.16 nmol⋅L−1 . Carbonic anhydrase has a single active site. turnover number =Asp residue (both of which are essential for catalysis) with pK, values of 5.9 and 4.5, respectively.
